Thirteen years ago today, I was twelve blocks from the Pentagon - TopicsExpress



          

Thirteen years ago today, I was twelve blocks from the Pentagon when I heard what sounded like a plane fly overhead. Seconds later I heard a large explosion, and a few short minutes after that, my sleepy, little neighborhood went into lockdown. I immediately headed to the park where the Pentagon officials were being evacuated to see what I could do to help, opening my home to any who might need it. My husband, Dr. Noah Kohn, had to pass through three police roadblocks to get home, and then walked to the Pentagon, where he volunteered in the medical triage for 10 hours. I have seen first hand the face of terrorism in the homeland. I am proud that my husband and I, like all of America that day, would not let terror overcome us.
